Back in preschool they had "bean tables" (like water tables, but without the mess) where kids could play. Well, the teacher had told me, "everything I say goes in one ear and out the other!" So I conducted an experiment. I stuck a bean in my ear thinking it would fall out the other ear!
The school called my mother and she took me to the hospital. She banged on the side of me head in front of the nurse and it fell out! Mom was not happy...
...Twenty plus years later and still getting laughed at for that one.
No one has mentioned the song?

I'm still laughing about that one.
One would figure that banging would actually have the opposite reaction of lodging things deeper (Physics). Unless she banged on the down side.
ROFLMBO... I think I would of squirted it out is my mom banged like that on me.
